Das Hauptziel der Webpräsenz ist die Bereitstellung allgemeinverständlicher Informationen rund um das menschliche Auge. Unter Vermeidung eines medizinischen "Fachchinesisch" sollen Laien verschiedene Aspekte des Themas kennenlernen können, wobei der Schwerpunkt auf augenfachärztlichen Themen liegt. Aber auch die biologischen Grundlagen des menschlichen Sehens werden durch Texte und Abbildungen erläutert. ... [Redaktion vifabio]
Diese Website, ein Angebot des dänischen Lundbeck Instituts, gibt einen kompakten Überblick über biologische und medizinische Aspekte des menschlichen Denkorgans, dem Gehirn. Der "Brain Explorer" bietet neben allgemeinen Textinformationen und Abbildungen auch einige spezielle Videobeiträge zu den wichtigen Botenstoffen Noradrenalin und Serotonin. ... [Redaktion vifabio]
Die Erforschung der Welt in unserem Kopf ist eines der spannendsten und brisantesten Projekte der Wissenschaft. Längst tragen nicht mehr nur Philosophen, Psychologen und Pädagogen, sondern auch Biologen, Mediziner und KI-Forscher dazu bei. Die Disziplinen häufen immer mehr Wissen an – auch über die Grenzen von Natur- und Geisteswissenschaften hinweg. Das darf nicht unkommentiert bleiben, so lautet die Idee von Brainlogs. Ob freier Wille oder Neuro-Enhancement, Online-Dating oder Alzheimer-WG: Was immer Psyche und Gehirn betrifft – wir spießen es auf. Und laden jeden ein, mit uns zu diskutieren! Unsere Blogger sind Meinungsbildner auf ihren Gebieten. Sie suchen sich ihre Themen selbst und sind ungebunden darin, was und wie sie schreiben. Brainlogs bildet die größte Community zu psychologischen und neurowissenschaftlichen Themen in der deutschsprachigen Blogosphäre. ... [Information des Anbieters]

The annual Cosyne meeting provides an inclusive forum for the exchange of experimental and theoretical/computational approaches to problems in systems neuroscience. To encourage interdisciplinary interactions, the main meeting is arranged in a single track. Cosyne topics include (but are not limited to): neural coding, natural scene statistics, dendritic computation, neural basis of persistent activity, nonlinear receptive field mapping, representations of time and sequence, reward systems, decision-making, synaptic plasticity, map formation and plasticity, population coding, attention, and computation with spiking networks. Participants include pure experimentalists, pure theorists, and everything in between. ... [Information of the supplier]
One of the main objectives of the HBP is to create and operate six Information and Communications Technology (ICT) Platforms, which are the core of the emerging HBP research infrastructure for brain research. Starting 30 March 2016, the scientific community worldwide can begin exploring the initial versions of the six HBP ICT Platforms. The Platforms embody the key objectives of the HBP, to gather and disseminate data describing the brain, to simulate and build models of the brain, to develop brain-inspired computing and robotics, and to create a global scientific community around the developing research infrastructure. The Platforms consist of prototype hardware, software tools, databases, programming interfaces, and initial data-sets, which will be refined and expanded on an on-going basis in close collaboration with end-users. The development of the Platforms has been the result of an extensive multidisciplinary effort involving more than 750 scientific collaborators and engineers from 114 institutions in 24 countries. The Platforms are as follows: the Neuroinformatics Platform, the Brain Simulation Platform, the High Performance Analytics and Computing Platform, the Medical Informatics Platform, the Neuromorphic Computing Platform and the Neurorobotics Platform. ...

The p53 tumor suppressor gene was initially identified as being essential for the DNA damage checkpoint, but it was subsequently found to have a broader function after cellular stress, such as oncogene activation or hypoxia. The p53 protein functions as a tetrameric transcription factor found at very low levels in normal unstressed cells. After stress, different pathways lead to post-translational modification of the protein and its stabilization. p53 database contains 16,000+ entries corresponding to TP53 mutations found in tumors, normal skin, and noncancerous diseases such as rheumatoid arthritis. The database also includes germline mutations found in Li-Fraumeni syndrome (LFS) and LFS-like syndrome. ... [Information of the supplier, modified]
